“Young Master Rong, Young Master Tang is outside with his men. He’d like you to go outside.”
“Got it.” Rong Yan slowly grabbed Luo Anning’s soft and tender hand, and began striding out.
Luo Anning followed Rong Yan involuntarily, for she had no choice, but to let him drag her out. “Rong Yan, where are you taking me? Don’t forget, I’m confined to Luxury Mansion.”
“What’s there to be afraid of when I’m here?” Before Luo Anning could even react from the shock, he immediately pulled her away and strode towards the door.
At this moment, a bunch of police officers and bodyguards from Tang Corporation, were gathered outside the sculpted metal door of Luxury Mansion.
As they were approaching, they heard Tang Chao bark, “Damn it, continue trying to hypnotize me. I dare you to hypnotize me again! Darn! You wretched woman, you’re really great at running, eh? You actually had the guts to run to the cave too. Very capable!”
“Damn it! Do you know how to treat wounds at all!?! Be gentler!”
“Get lost. Who told you to give me a butterfly knot? Are you courting death!?!”
Luo Anning tugged Rong Yan’s hand and stared at Tang Chao who had been surrounded by everyone else. She suppressed her voice and asked, “Rong Yan, what’s up with Tang Chao?”
Rong Yan guffawed smugly and remarked, “I reckon he’s going crazy soon.”
“Huh…?” Luo Anning could not recover from the shock.
Rong Yan caressed her head and said in disdain, “Luo Anning, you’ve become sillier.”
He then sunk deep in thought and began rubbing his beautifully-contoured chin, after which he muttered under his breath, “Good that you’re stupider now. It’d be easier to bully you then… ”
Luo Anning fell silent.
How could he insult me like that!?!
The two of them walked towards the door, after which the people crowding around the door immediately parted to make way for them. They were then greeted with the sight of a haggard old woman whose hands were restrained by the police officers. There was also another rugged-looking man beside her who was being held down by the police.
On the other hand, Tang Chao was hollering endlessly while seated in his convertible sports car. He too looked extremely disheveled and nothing like a wealthy heir.
His suit was tattered and torn, and his hairs were also blown away by the wind. Others might just think that he had escaped from somewhere.
At this moment, he stuck one leg out of the car while the doctors and nurses squatted on the ground to help dress his wounds. The nurse who had been yelled at, had no choice, but to untie the butterfly knot of the bandage around his calf, and retie it with tears in her eyes.
Rong Yan whistled and turned to look at Tang Chao whose calf had already been bandaged. He asked smilingly, “What’s going on? Did you get injured?”
Tang Chao could not afford to be embarrassed in front of his underlings. Hence, he bore with the pain and barked, “Nothing of that sort.”
How was he supposed to face anyone if the matter about him being bitten by a poisonous snake in the cave when he was catching an old hag, was exposed?
Will his underlings respect him still?
“Yeah, you only got bitten by a poisonous snake. A small wound like this won’t kill you,” said Rong Yan who had received the news.
At this moment, Rong Yan began to guffaw cruelly and he glowered at the bandages on Tang Chao’s calf.
The main key personnel of the case, Wang Chan the hypnotist and Li Yang who had abducted Ou Lixue, were completely ignored.
Luo Anning stared at the two people and asked Rong Yan, “Who are they? Why are they being held down?”
